In the Wake of Terrorism: Conversations with Rami Elhanan of the Parents Circle

INbodied Life with Lauren Taus

What would you do if one of your family members was killed in a terrorist attack? How would you manage your rage and your grief? What would you do?

Meet graphic designer Rami Elhanan. Born in Israel to a 7th generation Jerusalemite and a Holocaust survivor from Hungary, Rami’s personal life changed forever when his 14 year old daughter was blown up with 5 others in a Palestinian suicide attack on Ben Yehuda Street. Rami and his family have since become activists, researchers, and important voices in the struggle for peace in the Holy Land. Rami is the co-director of the Parents Circle with his Palestinian counterpart, Mazen Faraj.

In this conversation, you will hear how brainwashing perpetuates problems in the Middle East - for all communities, and why a victim mindset can be so dangerous. Learn about the challenges of healing, and be invited into a formless solution born in respect that begins and lives within.
